Canon EF 50mm f1.8 Specifications and Review

Original version of the EF 50/1.8. Sometimes called the "Mk I". Though it has the same optics as the EF 50/1.8 II, it's better built with a metal lens mount and distance scale. Discontinued in 1990, the newest ones are now 20 years old, but still sell for around $150 on eBay
